What do you do with dead motors?

I have a Johnson 120 VRO motor (model J 120TLC0) that had a piston seize and I do not intend to repair it due to expense. What do people do with these engines? I am sure there are great parts like the lower assembly and power trim/tilt but do not know what to remove or a fair price. Does anyone know where to call or a good contact to try to figure out who or how much this is worth so that I can move on and not give it away. It looks like ebay has lots of parts but what you list is not necessarily what it should sell for.

If you don't have the time or desire to list on eBay, try craigslist. I've bought many motors like what you describe, and I know I'm not the only one as I see ads all over the place for folks looking for blown motors for parts or rebuild.
